As a data owner, you can limit the amount of time a user or group has access to your data source by setting an access expiration date.
Navigate to the Members tab.
Adjust the number of days under the Expires column for the user/group whose access you want to limit (the limit is counting from today, so users/groups with 0 days left means their access will be revoked by the end of today and users with 1 day left means their access will be revoked by the end of tomorrow).
Save your changes.
To remove the limit (or set the limit to Never), delete the number from the field and save your changes.
Navigate to the Members tab.
Click the drop-down arrow under the Role column next to the user/group whose role you’d like to change.

Navigate to the Members tab.
Click the Name of the user or group whose history you want to review.
